We are seeking a male individual, couple, or family (preferably Spanish speaking) to mentor a 15-year-old youth from Mexico. He resides in a group home with twelve other teenage youth. The youth is polite and calm and enjoys cooking, listening to music and conversing to staff and other youth. He is an easy-going youth who enjoys his space and time alone, yet he is willing to engage in new activities. The youth unfortunately does not enjoy school very much, yet understands the importance and need for it for his future. He attends East Kentwood High School and is in 9th grade.

Background: The youth experienced past trauma in home country and during his journey to the United States.
